2019 年中考真题英语分项汇编 专题 17 任务型阅读 考点 2 回答问题 Passage 1（2019 •重庆 A 卷） In Jinzhong, Shanxi Province, there is a group of people who are busy drawing maps around. They are not workers on geography, but dispatchers(调度员) on Emergency(急救) Center of the city. Since 2007, the dispatchers in the center have been drawing maps of the local areas. “A dispatcher’s job is counted in seconds,” says Liang Ruimei, a dispatcher in the center. She has been working in the center since it started in 2007. “We must answer the phone in 3 seconds, get clear information about the patient in 60 seconds and dispatch(调度) emergency medical workers in 3 minutes at most. If we save one second, the patient may have a better chance to live.” Although nowadays the center has electronic maps, the dispatchers still walk through the streets to draw maps by hand. After many years’ hard work, the dispatchers keep every building and street of the city in mind. They even know whether or not a car can enter the gate of a building. Sometimes the caller can’t tell clearly where he is, but it doesn’t matter. As long as he describes the buildings around, the dispatcher can dispatch emergency medical workers to him. “We are trying to be quicker than Death,” says Liang. 65. Is Liang Ruimei a dispatcher in Emergency Center of Jinzhong? ______________________________________________________________________ 66. When did Emergency Center of Jinzhong start? ______________________________________________________________________ 67. To be quicker than Death, what do the dispatchers in Emergency Center of Jinzhong do? ______________________________________________________________________ 68. Do you think it necessary for dispatchers to draw maps by hand when they have electronic maps? Why or why not? ______________________________________________________________________ 【答案与解析】 65. Yes, she is. 【解析】由第三段第一句可知答案。 66. In 2007. 【解析】由第三段第二句可知答案。 67. They remember every corner of the city through hand-made maps, and dispatch emergency medical workers to the right place as soon as possible. 【解析】通读全文可推知，这些调度员通过手绘地图来记住城市的每一个角落，以求做到以最快的速度 把进行急救的医务人员送到正确的地方，争分夺秒，挽救生命。 68. Yes. Because maps by hand show small facts of the city more correctly and electronic maps may not work sometimes. No. Because electronic maps are easier to use and can show the latest road situation. 【解析】此题为开放性试题。 Passage 2（2019 •重庆 B 卷） Dr. Wang Hi there!

Passage 4（2019 •泰州市） 阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 Obey the rules of British roads British roads, some of the safest in the world. A study in 2018 compared more than 30 countries and found that 3.8 people per 100,000 died in traffic accidents in the UK. This number was lower than any other country. So, what did British drivers do to achieve this? What are they doing differently? Here are five top tips for drivers who are planning a trip to the UK. People in Britain drive on the left side of the road. In fact, a long time ago people drove on the left in most countries, but now only a few countries have this. Don't forget that this also means you must drive the other way around roundabouts ( 环岛) . British people feel that waiting should be fair for everybody. If you are in a queue of traffic, then don't try to push past the cars in front of yours. This is called "jumping the queue". You must wait for your turn; otherwise people may get angry with you. You must stop at the traffic lights when they are red. In many countries. it is OK to go past the red lights if you are turning a corner or if there isn't any other traffic around. In the UK you could have a lot of trouble if you do this. If another driver flashes (闪烁) his cars lights at you, he is probably trying to tell you that he will wait for you to go first. British people don't like to use their car horn ( 喇叭) much and they think people who do so are rude. If you get in an accident, don't try to pay the police. The police in the UK never take money, and if you try to offer them some, you could end your holiday visiting British prison. 回答下面 5 个问题，每题答案不超过六个词。 46.

This is true in Europe and especially in Eastern Europe. In Russia, the population is going down by about 100 people EVERY HOUR! Russia's population could fall by ONE THIRD by the year 2050! And in Poland (波兰) the population is also going down because people are leaving to work in other countries. One of the main reasons is a change of lifestyle. All over Europe people, especially educated women, have a different attitude(态度) to children than their parents. "I have one child and she is enough for me," said Galina Tereschkova, a doctor from Moscow. "My husband and I both work full-time. We can't imagine having more than one child." Many women decide to have children later in life or not to have children at all. "I don't want to have any children until I have worked for at least 10 years," said 19-year-old student Hana Markova from Prague. Her opinion is typical of 18-24 year old women everywhere in Europe. In Poland, the population is going down for a different reason. A lot of people, usually aged between 20 and 30, are leaving the country to work abroad. Poland joined the European Union in 2005 and since then more than half a million people have moved to Britain, Germany, Spain and Italy. Even so, the population of those four countries and many other countries in West Europe is also going down. Many governments are now encouraging people to have larger families. In France, women now receive nearly $1,000 a month for a year if they have a third child. Austrian women receive $700 a month for three years when they have their first child. 56.
